As old as Crysis is the Switch version still looks pretty great in my opinion thanks to modern additions like SVOGI, updated water effects/depth of field/motion blur, etc. There aren't very many Switch games that look better to me, the few that do are more artistically stylized fare like Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Trine 4, and as mentioned Luigi's Mansion.

It definitely does look great... And you are right that the ray tracing (SVOGI) does give it a good tick in the pants as far as visuals go.
But Crysis for all intents and purposes (as in the original game and not the remaster) would have been entirely possible as is on the Switch, the Remaster just brings with it new technical aspects that leverages the maxwell GPU to a better degree.

Win/win for us all.

I am really excited to see what Metroid brings to the table, Metroid on Gamecube was a technical feat... So I expect similar results with the Switch.

Yeah Prime 2 in particular looked stunning on Gamecube, and Prime 3 was one of the very best looking games on Wii. It's hard for me to get too excited about Prime 4 though when it's coming up on 4 years since it was announced and we've still seen absolutely nothing but a title card. It feels like it'll never be out.

As I've said, the rumored RE game for Switch coming either late this year or early next could be a contender, Capcom tends to like to push graphical boundaries with the series.

The announced port of World War Z could also be a real system pusher; Saber say bringing it to Switch is one of the hardest things they've had to do, and that's coming from the team that ported Witcher 3.
